SAN MARCOS ---- One person was arrested Thursday afternoon after
a relatively low-speed pursuit along westbound Highway 78, deputies
said.

The unidentified driver of a Volkswagen failed to pull over for
a law enforcement officer who tried to stop the vehicle at 4:20
p.m., according to an official with the San Diego County Sheriff's
Department.

The officer began chasing the vehicle west on the freeway, the
official said. The vehicle was traveling between 5 mph and 55
mph.

Authorities reportedly stopped the Volkswagen at the Mar Vista
offramp and arrested the driver on suspicion of failing to yield to
a peace officer.
